Council’s services and meeting the
Council’s obligations under Section 123 of the Local
Government Act 1954.
The assignee has been reviewed and found to be a suitable tenant
for the property. The
assignment will prevent the Council incurring costs associated with
vacant properties.

prevent the Council
incurring costs associated with vacant property whilst an
alternative occupier is found.
